It needs to be said more often that the world is a better, more beautiful and more enriching place BECAUSE trans people are a part of it.

EXCLUSIVE: Michael Prescott himself doctored Trump quote in his anti-BBC report
A report alleging Panorama broadcast misleading Trump quotes contains misleading quotes itself

Incredible summary of the problem with all the various LLM’s out there.
The funniest thing about how absolute dogshit journalists are at their job, is that when you see a chatbot regurgitate strange sounding phrases the *only way it could do so* is by having stolen them from somewhere.
Searching for those weird phrases, yields the source the chatbot stole.

Google Gemini doesn’t appear to be doing too well:
‘"I am a disgrace to this planet. I am a disgrace to this universe. I am a disgrace to all universes . . . I am a disgrace to all possible and impossible universes and all that is not a universe," the bot continued.’

The only reason we should even consider the pundit class any more is to tell them they're wrong, and what's the value in that?
The entire pundit class has convinced people for so long that their “analysis” was somehow necessary and valuable when in reality it was just a con game to manufacture consent for bias-confirming “strategies” that only benefited the capitalist class and guaranteed pundits career security.

Piers Morgan is as angry about Glamour honouring trans women as he was about Eastenders showing two men kissing in 1989 and for exactly the same reason.

The Diplomat is top tier TV. Watching the West Wing these days feels hopelessly naive and a relic of a lost era, but watching The Diplomat makes me feel how I felt back then... clever people trying to save the day, no matter what. Plus the bad guys are SMART which is so much more fun than reality...

I have come to the conclusion the EHRC guidance on single sex spaces should not even come to Parliament. It is misleading and has caused distress for my trans constituents.
I urge @bphillipsonMP to reject it on grounds of practicality and human rights.

BREAKING: Disney+ is to replace the two-season run of Andor with a recut version that runs for only five minutes, and is just Mon Mothma apologising profusely to Darth Vader for any inconvenience, and letting him have whatever he wants.

Transphobic media bias in action.
The Guardian has a massive front-page splash about the fascist demo taking place in central London.
Trans Pride London was more than double the size and got nothing like this level of coverage, and then not until afterwards.

Have made a formal complaint to IPSO about this... probably won't achieve anything, but it's pretty quick and easy to do, so if you're as pissed as I am about the constant demonisation of trans people, why don't you do it too?

An assassin writes Bella Ciao in the same breath as a Notices Your Bulge meme on his bullets. One of the government responses is a practicing Hindu asserting that the fundamentalist Christian victim will join him in a Norse pagan afterlife. Welcome to the epistemic collapse.

This is a really neat summary of why I'm now technically a terrorist, and Linehan is getting multiple sympathetic articles a week on the BBC...
Stop killing people = terrorism
Physically attack a minority group = free speech
It's all fucking insane.
